Indy is next stop on D’Qwell Jackson’s tour of NFL teams

Linebacker D’Qwell Jackson has found plenty of interest from around the league since being released by the Browns with the Colts joining the party this week.

Jason LaCanfora of CBSSports.com reports that Jackson is expected to visit with the Colts after wrapping up his meeting with the Dolphins on Tuesday. Jackson met with the Titans and Broncos over the weekend and there’s been no indication of a leading contender for his services at this point.

The Colts got 16 starts from Jerrell Freeman at one inside linebacker spot last season and used Pat Angerer and Kelvin Sheppard at the other spot. Neither played particularly well and both Angerer and inside reserve Kavell Conner are set to become free agents next week.

With free agency approaching, Jackson’s window of relative exclusivity on the open market will soon come to an end. Judging from the amount of teams that have shown interest in signing him, he should be able to find a new team before the flood of other options is let loose.

He already knows where he wants to play. He is just out to get free steak dinners at this point.

We have a huge hole in the middle with Erin Henderson gone and he played for Zimmer in Cleveland. I am thinking maybe Vikings. But the lure of a championship like he might find in Denver might prove too strong. The Vikes are rebuilding in too many areas to talk championship.

He’s not fooling anyone…. He’s on the internet right looking at Denver properties…

Whatever team that is lucky enough to land D.Q. 52 will get a class act, leader on and off the field, a great mentor for young players, and an absolute tackling machine! Very sad to see him go, thanks for giving 100% all the time for the Browns, you deserve a ring! -Browns fan
